How can yoga burn calories.As it is said that its good for tackling obesity?

I know doing exercises such as jogging,cycling burns calories because unless we burn calories we wont become slim.


But how can yoga burn calories.|||Any exertion burns more calories than just sitting. How many calories you burn per minute or per hour depends on the intensity of the activity. The more intense, the more you burn per minute. But also, the more intense, the less likely that you will be able to do it for very long.





Yoga can be mild, moderate or vigorous. The more vigorous, the more calories you will burn.





But keep this in mind, it is great for your body no matter how many calories you burn.





And as you become more fit, you will be able to sustain greater intensity for a longer period and burn even more calories.
